Deep beneath the ocean waves lies a magical world full of incredible creatures. One of the most fascinating things about these underwater animals is how they hide using camouflage.
One day, a curious little fish decided to explore the ocean. This small, shiny fish with a bright blue tail loved to swim around and meet new friends. As the fish swam deeper, it noticed something amazing.A flounder was found! At first, it looked just like a patch of sand. But then, the flounder moved! It had changed its skin colour to match the sandy ocean floor perfectly. ‘Wow!’ thought the little fish. ‘That’s a clever trick!’
Next, a clever cuttlefish appeared. This cuttlefish could change not only its colour but also the patterns on its body. It flashed stripes and spots to confuse predators and communicate with other cuttlefish. The cuttlefish said, ‘I can blend in with my special skin to signal friends and scare away enemies!’
Finally, a sea dragon was spotted. The sea dragon had leaf-like fins and appendages all over its body. These appendages made it look exactly like the seaweed it was floating in. ‘In this way, I can drift along without being noticed,’ said the sea dragon.
The little fish was amazed at how these animals used camouflage to survive. Swimming home, the fish was excited to tell all its friends about the magical world of undersea camouflage. And from that day on, it always paid extra attention to the ocean’s hidden wonders.
